Sex on the Beach

A drink that’s great in theory, but wasn’t exactly all it was cracked up to be. What is a book that just didn’t live up to the hype?

All the reviews for this book said, “TAMORA PIERCE GOES HARD! SHE PULLS NO PUNCHES! HEADS WILL ROLL!”

In reality, almost everyone survives and Kel gets away with disobeying orders.

The book ends with the implication that Kel MIGHT go talk to Dom, her big crush.

Pierce doesn’t reveal their marriage until Trickster’s Choice.

BOOOOOO. I wanted a bigger finale!!

Wine

You’ve just gone through a rough break-up, so you park yourself in bed with your favorite bottle of wine, some ice-cream, and a bucket for your tears. Name a book that made you cry out all of your feels.

I’ve cried over books before.

Only one has made me cry in public.

At school.

In the library.

In front of a classmate.

I used to be able to control my reactions.

Then this book came along.

Shout-out to my mom for recommending this book.

It. Ruined. My. Life.

Strip Club!

Your favorite naked hardback.

I don’t normally read Neil Gaiman (and, honestly, I don’t plan to), but I LOVED the look of this recent edition of American Gods.

Now I wonder: should read this?

Or just buy it to stare at?
